I applied to a MA-PhD program and has been offered a 4 year scholarship. After April 15 I will be notified by the department if I will be receiving a stipend. When should I notify the university of my acceptance? Before April 15 or after? If I notify the university before April 15 will it ruin my change to receive a stipend?
in the acceptance letter it stated " the Admissions Committee has also recommended that you be placed on our select waiting list for a corresponding cash stipend..."
I really want to go there. If I accept the offer now will it hurt my chance of getting the stipend?
